More caravan beers.

First up is one I have been looking forward to trying due to all the positive reviews on here.

Export Porter from @dave_77
This is a cracking porter. Don't think I have had this particular style before so not sure what it should be like but really loving this. Will be looking at making something similar. This is going down too easy.

Just rolled into the holiday home. Forgot I’d bought a load of these the last time I was up, but ended up in a state of over refreshment on Gamma Ray and Campden IPA so they didn’t get touched. It’s pretty good, but to be honest, the homebrew I have on tap at home is a lot nicer.

👍🏼 I can't take the full credit. It was a clone recipe in BYO of the Kernel's beer. I think it's based on a historic Barclay Perkins export Porter Let's Brew special - 1859 Barclay Perkins EI
 
Sticking to the export beers. An export stout from verdant. At 7.7% it is slightly stronger than the porter.

This isn't that great to be honest. I can see it was canned in December. The reason I looked was because it tasted metalically.

Been out putting a fence up round the decking to keep a 9 week old terrorist from running round the garden eating every flower and plant she can find and came in to have a nice pint of American stout while I had peace. Didn’t last long as she must have smelled the malt. Now sitting beside me trying to get her nose in the glass. Bloody hard work.

So tonight Jim is having another of his low carb beers. It came out at 6.8%, finishing at 1.006. Making it 11g of carb a bottle.

It has simcoe and cascade hops in it, 2kg extra pale malt, 500g caramalt and 250g crystal malt.

The crystal malt wasn’t planned but was chucked in as it was left over so made the beer a little darker.

Hopefully that all makes sense! I’m trying to learn! 😁

Perhaps I was a bit too quick to judge this. The more it warmed the more I liked it. Really good in the end. I think an export porter as just creep up the brew order
